Derek Jeter and Johnny Damon where two of 4 Yankees to rake bombs last night.

Taking 2 out of 3 from the defending League champs is how you want to go into another series with your most hated rival. 4 bombers hit bombs-all to right field- while Andy Pettite K’d 7 through 6 innings. The good guys are now one game ahead of the Red Sox in the standings and are officially the best team in the American League. The Yankees haven’t beaten Boston in 5 tries this year, so this series is going to be a could litmus test to how far along these guys has come.
